The bill establishes regulations regarding compensation for health care services provided to inmates in Martin County detention centers. It defines key terms such as "air ambulance," "ambulance," and "health care provider," and sets specific compensation limits for medical services rendered by health care providers and hospitals. For instance, if a health care provider does not have a contract with Martin County, their compensation for inmate medical services is capped at 110% of the Medicare allowable rate, with a potential increase to 125% if the provider reported a negative operating margin in the previous year. Additionally, hospitals designated as trauma centers are entitled to 175% of the Medicare allowable rate for services provided to trauma alert victims, provided they lack a contract with the county.

The bill also addresses compensation for emergency medical transportation services, limiting it to 110% of the Medicare allowable rate for entities without a contract with the county. Importantly, the act specifies that it does not apply to charges for medical services provided at hospitals operated by Martin County. The bill is set to take effect upon becoming law.
